Best Ever Boston Baked Beans

Boston Baked Beans is a family favorite, with a recipe so easy it comes together in less than 10 minutes. The classic combination of molasses and maple syrup brings this recipe to an entirely new level. Ingredients are all tossed in a baking dish, mixed and baked. It's that easy!

This are my favorite bean recipe, and it literally takes about 10 minutes to get them in the oven they are so easy. I didn't think too much about sharing this easy recipe with you until the last time we ate them. Chad kept on raving about them and eating more and more and more. I shouldn't admit I enjoyed these beans in a bowl mixed with our Southern Style Potato Salad, as topping on a burger and in a bowl cold out of the fridge for breakfast. {{{hides head}}} Yes. I did.

Loaded with 3 types of beans, molasses, maple syrup and bacon, bacon and more bacon these beans are a classic favorite in our house and I am sure they will be in yours too!

so simple you will be making it all summer long! Easy to cook ahead
and take with you. Awesome served warm or room temperature.

Reserve enough bacon to cover the top of your baking dish (I used 5 slices). Using kitchen shears, cut the remaining bacon into bite size pieces and place into casserole dish. Dice onion and add to casserole dish. Set aside.

In a 4 cup bowl; combine ketchup, molasses, maple syrup, mustard and pepper. Whisk to combine. Pour sauce over bean mixture and gently stir to combine. Cut reserved bacon into bite sized pieces and place on top of bean mixture.

Bake beans in a preheated oven for 60 minutes, or until sauce is thickened and bacon is cooked through.

Serve and enjoy!

COOK'S NOTE: You may precook your own dried beans and substitute each can with 1 1/2 cups precooked beans.

Ross, thank you for stopping by. All varieties of beans have different cook times. We have a fabulous crockpot recipe for smokehouse beans. But absolutely feel free to pre cook all of the beans and substitute 1 1/2 cups cooked beans for each can. Enjoy!
